It’s Sunday.

Let’s take a moment to slow down, breathe, and check in — with yourself and those you love.

This week’s reflection prompt isn’t about changing anything or doing more.
It’s a gentle invitation to notice, feel, and reconnect.

You might write your thoughts in a journal, express them through art, or simply hold them in your awareness for the week ahead.

Be gentle with yourself this week.

Healing and growth take time — and awareness is a powerful start.

When your child has big emotions — crying, yelling, refusing, or spiraling fast — staying calm can feel almost impossible. Your body tenses, your mind races, and you want to talk them through it, fix it, or make it stop.

But in that moment, your steady presence is the thing that helps them settle the most.

In this free online workshop, we’ll look at what’s happening beneath those anxious reactions — and practice 5 simple strategies you can use right in the moment to help your child calm sooner, and make those tough moments feel more manageable for both of you.

When anxiety takes over, it doesn’t always look the same.

Sometimes your child gets loud, fast, reactive — talking quickly, arguing, “not listening,” or running from the room. Other times, they go quiet —shut down, stare, or refuse to speak.

Both are anxiety.
Both are overwhelm.

Join our free, one-hour online workshop where you’ll learn what’s really going on when your child feels anxious or overwhelmed — and 5 practical tools that help them calm down and get back to themselves.

It’s so normal to want to talk things through in the moment — but when your child is crying, yelling, refusing, or completely melting down, their brain can’t reach that thinking part yet.

That’s why parents need simple tools they can use in the middle of a meltdown to help their child calm down (before you lose your sanity).

Sign up for our upcoming parenting workshop to learn what’s really going on when your child feels anxious or overwhelmed — and 5 practical tools that help them come back to calm again.

When your child is anxious, it doesn’t always look like worry.

It can look like overwhelm, meltdowns, revved-up bodies, avoidance, or shutdown — and in those moments, it’s not that they won’t listen… it’s that they can’t. Most parents end up reacting in the moment, feeling frustrated or unsure what their child needs.

These moments are tough — and so many parents tell us they feel unsure how to help in the moment.

5 Strategies to Support an Anxious Child in the Moment will help you understand what’s happening beneath those big feelings — and offer simple, body-based strategies you can use right away, even in the middle of meltdowns.

In this one-hour online workshop, you’ll learn:
❤ The real reason behind your child’s anxiety and meltdowns
❤ How to be the calm your child needs when emotions run high
❤ 5 easy-to-use strategies that actually work in the moment

You’ll get to try a few of these tools yourself — because when you feel the shift in your own body, it’s easier to support your child with compassion.

You’ll leave feeling more grounded and ready with small, actionable steps you can bring into real moments at home.

This workshop is for parents who want to understand their child’s anxiety and have tools that fit the real-life moments at home.
